Time Lapse Malarky...

Im thinking of attmpeting some time lapse stuff via a series (well hundreds) of photos. Does anyone know whats the best software for processing it in to a movie?

Cheers

I use Windows Movie Maker. See my attempts here:

But I'm sure there is better software to use.

I wonder if, since your movie is not likely to be shown full size, why not do it the easy way and use a webcam - most come with time-lapse software as standard these days (Logitech certainly do)?

Thats what happens when you upload to one of the sharing sites when I had them hosted elsewhere they were in DVD or 1080P HD quality ... so no blocking etc.....

Its the Picasa site trashing them again....

I've used VirtualDub for this.

Thanks all. I'll do some experimenting as I have Virtual Dub as well. Im hoping to get the movie as smooth as possible. I got a ton of jpgs over a 4 hour period last night. I dont think the milky way shows up hardly at all due to the street light lit foreground trees and of course it being June!

Hope to process them all tonight

Wish me luck
